    Simple question .... I sure don't mean to be crude, but after the National Review coming out with hateful rhetoric against one of its own front runners, (Trump), it sure looks like conservative is the question to be discussed this election season! Has the notion of conservative become so full of itself that it is n o longer moving as one, but blocked from top to bottom?

    My belief is that the DNC as we once knew it is no longer. And the GOP as we once knew it is also on it's way to becoming history!

    This may be a good thing, as both parties have lost focus of what it meant to be a Democrat or a Republican, o what are your thoughts on the future of either party, ESPECIALLY the GOP?

    BTW - I stopped voting for either party's candidates years ago. I am now an Independent, for whatever that means Wink

    The GOP Establishment is destroying itself. And at this point I'm OK with that. Ted Cruz would remake the party into a better party and the Establishment knows it which is why they are fighting tooth and nail against him. I think at this point the Establishment is going to hold its nose circle around Trump, and then claim that they were right that only moderates can get elected. At this point I'm more fed up with the GOP Establishment then the Democrat. At least Democrat are more honest with the power hungriness.
